One-Revolution Tube Cutter
Time-saving device for cutting tubes in condensers, heat exchangers and boilers. Suitable for steel, copper and brass tubes with an outside diameter of 16 to 20 mm.
The TECO one-revolution tube cutter is designed for hand operation, using a ratchet or hand wrench of the proper size to fit the drive shank of the tool. The cutter bit operates on an eccentric principle. With the cutter bit in the closed position, insert the cutter into the tube to be cut.
Apply wrench and turn in a clockwise direction. The tool bit will move out and pierce the tube wall. Continue turning and cut the tube off in one revolution. The cutter is then turned slightly counterclockwise to close in the bit, allowing the cutter to be removed from the tube. The TECO one-revolution tube cutter can also be used to puncture the tube before plugging. This ensures that pressure cannot build up in the tube and cause the plug to become loose or blow out.
Features:
• Suitable for tubes from 1/2" to 2 1/2" (12.7 to 63.5 mm) O.D.
• Suitable for tube sheet thickness to 6" (to 152 mm).
